In 2004, a special invitation was received for the ARMADA ARGENTINA, together with other members of the Armed Forces of Latin America, to participate in the Multinational Force. The same happened in 2005.
This exercise is of great interest to the countries of the region, which is why it remains in full force to realize its realization in the years ahead. Thus, it is planned to participate in this exercise in August 2006, authorized by Law No. 26.059.
3. Principles of the Objectives of Activity:
The implementation of the PANAMAX Combined Exercise contributes to increasing the level of interoperability among the Armed participants in the planning and execution of Surveillance and Interdiction Operations of a bioceanic step, such as the PANAMA CANAL, through the exchange of information on the command and control systems of the naval means of surface and air, of doctrines and procedures, and the combined training in the conduct of forces at sea.
This exercise, framed by international military cooperation, serves to strengthen mutual trust and integration with the continent ' s armed forces, and to maintain an adequate level of training to integrate a Multinational Force.
The realization of these specific operations is of great interest as it allows us to accumulate important experience in view of the responsibility of our country to control important interoceic passages in the south of the continent.

The purpose pursued with its execution is to verify in the field, with complete fractions, with the displacement of a large number of combat vehicles and in the conditions closest to the reality, the feasibility of the plans made at the stage of the development of the exercise in the cabinet.
This exercise is operational, it will be developed by organic fractions with its armament, individual equipment and its combat vehicles (wheel to wheel, caterpillar and personnel transport) of each Army.
The exercise will include the execution of combat shooting. Its development begins as a result of a hypothetical situation in which a figurative country invades the territory of one of the member countries of the alliance, thus forming an Armoured/Mechanized Combined Brigade consisting of a Combined Staff and its constituent elements composed of armoured and machined elements of the four participating countries, who will plan and execute a conventional operation to defend one of the member countries of the alliance.

It is an operational activity, consisting of an airborne operation, which will be carried out by the Parachute Brigade of the FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF BRAZIL, in which the Reinforced Parachute Section of the ARGENTINE EJERCITO is integrated.
The exercise includes planning activities, the apprehension of parachute troops, the assault on an objective, the conquest and formation of the airhead, ending with a connection operation through the use of organic land media of the FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF BRAZIL.
Airborne troops are especially suited to execute operations behind the first line of enemy forces, in the depth of their device, taking advantage of their special ability to overcome major obstacles and quickly cover large distances.
However, these forces present a limited capacity of permanence or resistance, so the time factor is critical.
The connection is the operation that is being carried out to achieve the gathering of forces in an enemy-control field, in order to recover or relieve a force that allows to be employed elsewhere or to strengthen or support it for its permanence in that objective.
During the exercise, a day-to-day, mass, with full equipment will be launched from aircraft belonging to the BRAZIL AEREA FORCE of the Hércules C - 130 and Bandeirante C - 95.
